In my thirty-FINE (35) years of living, I have had so many “AH-HA Moments” pertaining to life. It seems that changing my mind has been a constant denominator in my life. During pivotal and life-changing moments, I have definitely asked myself the question over and over why am I here on this earth? I can go as far back as my late high-school and college days when the guidance counselor would ask the popular question, What do you want to go to school for or What do you want to be when you grow up? My face became well-known in the office because I changed my mind every other week. The list went from becoming a cosmetologist to a nurse to a social worker to one of the most popular choices…..I don’t know!
In order to know what I am destined to be in life, I first have to understand why I was created! Understanding that I was created with purpose in mind I can now accept and pursue purpose. Why specifically purpose? What is purpose you asked? Purpose is the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. So this simply means that each day that you wake up and breathe air, there is a reason for it. No matter what stage you are in life, there is a reason why you are here and that reason must be fulfill before you depart.
Have you ever wondered why there was a delay in the things that you hope and prayed for? Did you you ever want something so bad but it seemed as if everything prevented it from happening. Many times there is a delay in the process of purpose because we are carrying dead weight. We walk around on the outside happy as can be, but we don’t even realize that we carry hinderances that has slowed us down. I know this sounds deep and unfamiliar! But let me shed some light using my own experience!
I live day by day with the motto “Oh its gonna to happen!” What’s gonna to happen? Every vision, every dream, every idea….It will manifest…not locally, but nationally! Now prior to recognizing and accepting I had a purpose over my life I took every situation and hit that happen to me as a defeat. From losing homes, cars, jobs….You name it! Every situation that occurred was a WHY ME? Because of these situations I became extremely angry with life and people! Allowing anger to stay dormant and become apart of my characteristic it now was a feature of my purpose. So instead of seeing the greatness that I portray, you say something that just wasn’t quite right. I had to say, no this will not be apart of my resume and birth out the bad and rebirth greatness.
The cliche it doesn’t matter what happened yesterday is not completely true. How is endurance and strength built? By patiently encountering painful and difficult situations until you are strong enough to handle it and elevate to the next level. This is also what I call #HelloPurpose. You will never say hello to purpose if you are always on track to someone else’s purpose. Life goal should be to live in purpose on purpose. Baby, its 2018, let that mess go….depression, low-self-esteem, guilt, shame just to name a few that I have experience. Become the greatest attribute to your purpose so that you can be free and live again, and again and again! Someone is depending on you saying yes to purpose so that they can live out their purpose! Chile I know its hard, I know money tight, but like Nike…Just do it and don’t look back! Go back to school, start that business, get that passport, write that book, wear your blonde hair (wink, wink…and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT) Do what you are destined and in love to do!
Live out each day in YOUR PURPOSE! Not your neighbors or your Facebook and Instagram friends. Pooh, that’s a set up…Don’t do it! When you walk in your purpose, you now become undefeatable! Purpose is a birthright – nothing and no one can stop it but you! Others may not understand my purpose—some days I still be like Whaaaattt OK girl! But its mine and I’m walking right in it with my five inch heels, skinny legs and all.

This just motivated me. I still ask God daily, WHAT is MY purpose? What AM I supposed to be doing. It’s almost like I’m waiting for someone to tell me. There are days like today, that I don’t know what I’m supposed to be doing in this life. So, Mrs. Purpose Pusher how do we find our purpose?
Love you,
